Lee Jeffries has an incredible series of photos that he's taken of homeless people. Two of his photos were the inspiration and subject for two of my paper cuts and associated acrylic renderings.

My latest paper cut. A concept piece called 'Picasso Paints Picasso Paints Picasso"
Picasso drew a self portrait in charcoal. I placed a photo of Picasso into his self-portrait canvas and then created a paper cut from this.
I like it because Picasso liked to "flatten" his images with everything (eyes/ears/nose/face/arms/palette/etc on one plane. So I made the portrait that he is painting appear to be coming out of the page in 3D.
Lighted Silhouette of a flying Crow. Constructed from 1/4" Baltic Birch Plywood. Approx. 18" in diameter and 2" deep. With remote dim-able white LED lights.
